High-flying Aston Villa will look to make it 10 wins in a row when Man United head to Villa Park on Sunday afternoon. Unai Emery's side followed up their impressive win against Arsenal with a 3-2 win on the road vs West Ham.
Read what our Premier League football tipster Nathan Joyes has to say - as well as find out what his best bet is.
Aston Villa came from behind to beat West Ham last weekend, making it nine wins in a row across all competitions.
In the Premier League, Emery's side are now only one point behind Man City in 2nd and three points behind Arsenal in 1st. Whether pundits are taking them seriously or not, they are certainly in the title race.
And they are doing it as a team. Morgan Rogers - who scored a brace last time out - is their top goalscorer with five, while Emiliano Buendia has four - including the winner against Arsenal.
Villa may not be scoring many at home (13) but they have only conceded six and head into this contest with four clean sheets from their last five matches at Villa Park.
Man United head to the Midlands after a frantic 4-4 draw against Bournemouth on Monday night.
Although that result did extend their unbeaten run to four, they have only won two of their seven matches since the beginning of November.
Results on the road have been better, with teams usually playing more open when at home, allowing Amorim's side to find gaps. They head to Villa Park five unbeaten on the road, having beaten Wolves, Liverpool and Crystal Palace.
But none of those matches have seen Man United walk away with a clean sheet. In fact, you have to go back 10 matches the last time they kept one - something Villa will be keen to add to on Sunday.
Man United beat Aston Villa 2-0 at Old Trafford on the final day of last season, while drawing 0-0 at Villa Park. Villa have lost two of their last five matches against Man United at home (W1 D2 L2), with their last win coming back in 2022 (4-2).
With Aston Villa looking unstoppable at present, the hosts will appeal to many at odds-against to beat Man United and make it 10 in a row. Nathan Joyes has taken a look at the Premier League odds for this match and puts forward his best pick.
Aston Villa (5/6 with Betfred) are odds-against to secure yet another win and it's an enticing price, even factoring in their recent record against the visitors.
That's because Man United (11/5 with Betano) seem incapable of keeping clean sheets - and an out of form Bournemouth side managed to stick four past them in their own back yard.
Aston Villa haven't been the free scoring side from last season, but rarely concede, and another narrow victory against a top side looks to be on the cards.
The hosts are finding ways in which to beat whoever is put in front of them - maintaining tabs on the front two who are fighting for the title.
And while Man United haven't lost on the road since September, this is arguably their toughest test for quite some time - and head to Villa Park after yet another concerning defensive display.
